Captain Will Riker and the crew of the USS Titan make contact with a civilization made up entirely of artificial intelligences -- sentient computers who have surrounded a vast gas-giant planet for eons, serving as the first line of defence against an ominous threat that the Titan crew can scarcely comprehend. The long and turbulent history of the AIs has made them deeply distrustful of organics, and their mistrust leads to an unexpected act which radically transforms the dynamic between the ship and her crew.

I thought Synthesis was the best of the Titan books, and James Swallow wrote a great book. I enjoyed how it broke away from the normal Titan plot of exploration: there was still an exploration element in it, but, this time, Titan was thrown into a much larger combat situation. The robot creatures were a lot like data, in that they seek to evolve. They were very intriguing and fascinating.
